I know that everyone is use to seeing the "what the hell did I just watch" review, but seriously.... WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST WATCH? I am fairly certain that I have never left a review with those words, but for this movie it is definitely warranted! I have never complained about spending $6.99 to watch a movie, but I would have rather spent the money on ANYTHING else. $7 worth of dirt, sure why not?!? Honestly, I would have rather sat in my own bathroom watching paint dry for 96 minutes!

I don't want to leave any spoilers for those of you who decide to watch this film, but I suggest watching anything else. There is really nothing good I can say about it other than I'm glad it's over. You can't even blame Covid for this mess!

First off I will say that this is not really what I would classify as a Horror movie (unless it was something actually happening to you). However, it is definitely a Thriller.

I believe that it deserves a solid 6 stars just for holding my attention all the way through the movie. At times it reminded me of "Get Out" just based on style. If you are the type that tends to over-analyse everything you watch, then you probably won't enjoy this movie as much as I did. I have that problem too when it comes to things needing to make sense throughout a movie, and the stupid decisions that the characters in the movie make. Spell, although not perfect, mostly made sense. I didn't find myself constantly thinking "how stupid can you be" or "this makes absolutely no sense; no one would do that". Instead, I found myself just watching to see what happened next.

Just go in with moderate expectations, and you should find it enjoyable. I even paid about $10 to rent it on demand, and I don't regret spending the money. I did give it 7 stars just to bring the rating up slightly. Ignore the super high and super low scores. This movie doesn't deserve either. For me, it is a solid 6 star Thriller.

I am not sure why this movie is rated so low. It isn't anything particularly special, but it is worth a watch.

This genre rarely produces any great movies anymore that haven't already been done a dozen different ways. This movie is one of those, but it isn't corny either!

It is creepy, but not really scary.

The young female lead is pretty well acted, certainly much better than the father role.

I would say that for my $2.50 rental fee it wasn't a waste of time. I generally fast-forward through most of the horror films released these days, but didn't need to do that with this film.
